pHATmatik PRO is the first tool of its kind that can effortlessly play back any loop locked to tempo in your host environment. No more artificial impediments to creativity: pHATmatik PRO™ puts you in control. Use loops at any tempo, in any key, instantly from within your digital audio workstation. No more switching back and forth between unreliable tools and dealing with confusing, proprietary file formats. pHATmatik PRO™ loads any loop in industry-standard wav or aiff format, and supports import of ACID-ized wav files. pHATmatik PRO™ works for the musician, not the other way around.

Extended information

pHATmatik PRO™ gives the musician an unprecedented amount of control over each sound in the loop. Did you ever think you could put reverb on just the snares? Well now you can. With pHATmatik PRO's four stereo outs, you can buss each snare, kick, or syllable to a different channel in your host and process it to your heart's content. Your way. Your music. No boundaries.

Each 'slice' in your loop has independent settings for gain, pan, pitch, and a super-pHAT 2-pole multimode resonant filter. There are fully independent ADSR envelopes for gain, pitch, and filter cutoff per slice. In addition, each slice has an independent loop mode and loop points: reverse slices on the fly, ping-pong them back and forth, or turn that trash-can snare into a haunting granular soundscape. No limits.

If playing back audio seamlessly at any tempo and mind-boggling per-slice options aren't enough, each of pHATmatik PRO's sixteen channels features a comprehensive master section: tempo-synced delay, two sample-accurate, tempo-synced LFOs, a truly mind-bending comb filter, evil distortion and an analog-modeled multi-mode resonant filter. Of course everything can be controlled by envelopes, and pHATmatik PRO's simple but powerful modulation matrix makes any routing configuration you can imagine a snap. With all this sound mangling power, a single loop can generate hundreds of unrecognizable variations in just a few minutes of tweaking.

More is Better - If one pHATmatik PRO™ is good, sixteen must be better, right? pHATmatik PRO™ breaks the constraints of limited virtual instrument slots in your host with a sixteen-part multitimbral implementation that gives musicians the awesome power of sixteen pHATmatik PRO's in one VSTi slot. Load up sixteen loops, play them all back at the same time, all in tempo, all ready to be twisted to your creative needs. And don't worry about having to choose between another loop and that killer vocal reverb: pHATmatik PRO™ was designed from the ground up to treat your CPU with respect.

Not a 'User Interface': a Musician Interface - pHATmatik PRO™ makes all this power easy and intuitive to use. pHATmatik PRO's interface provides streamlined workflow, dead-easy midi learn automation, and an integrated loop browser that gives you the ability to preview entire directories of loops in just seconds. Working with loop-based content has never been easier or more integrated with your creative process.
